Gelcoat repair, painting, and fiberglass work aren’t things you learn from a book. As much art as science, they’re mastered through years — even decades — of experience.

At Sarasota Custom Boatworks, that kind of extensive experience is exactly what we hang our hats on. Certified in all major brands of marine coatings, owner Cliff Jung has more than 30 years experience in the industry, including 15 behind a spray gun, and personally sprays every job — generally one to two boats per week.

One-Stop Shop

We specialize in painting topsides and decks and repairing and refinishing gelcoat, but we also offer a wide range of related services.

Additionally, we work closely with skilled partners to seamlessly provide services outside our core capabilities, including engine and mechanical installation, service, and repair; upholstery, canvas, and vinyl; pipework tower and top fabrication and repair; and more. The result is a true “one-stop shop.”

Our services include:

We will happily work on any make of boat, but we have particular experience restoring Boston Whalers, Makos, Aquasports, and Grand Banks trawlers.
